Description markusN 2015-10-18 09:19:07 UTC
When closing meld, it pollutes the terminal with:

(meld:28146): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_container_foreach: assertion 'GTK_IS_CONTAINER (container)' failed

(meld:28146): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_container_foreach: assertion 'GTK_IS_CONTAINER (container)' failed

There is now an upstream fix:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=755407#c8

--> pull request https://github.com/GNOME/meld/pull/7

I patched locally the file
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/meld/meldapp.py

in my Fedora 22 box and the bug is fixed for me.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2016-07-19 18:15:50 UTC
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
